Fire Protection.
To the Editor Of the Press:

To the Editor Of the Press:
The town of Westbrook will hold spec
ial town meeting this week to hear the re-
port Of committee recently appointed to
investigate the question of more adequate
fire protection for the town. In presenting
their report to the town the committee will
say
''Your committee are fully satisfied that the in
terests of the town can be best served by making
n contract with the Portland Water Company to
furnish water from its mains passing through our
town rather than by any other water works which
might be built by the town or by other parties in
dependent of the said Water Company. Also,
such a contract with the said Portland Water
Company. That the proposition is a reasonable
one, as the total cost to them will be they state
not less than SOC, 200, on which they will receive
five per cent interest fer the term of fifteen years.
and thereafter water will be furnished to the
town free forever in consideration of the abate-
ment of the taxes"
They offer to put in so hydrants, ana to
change over those now set into six inch pipe
and supply water free for town purposes for
$500 per year for 10 years. If the town
paid for the hydrants and maintained them,
1t would be, say, $1,000 for the same time, the
cost OF the hydrants being 5000, and main
tenance $500 more. When it is understood
that the company now supply the inhabi-
tantS with water for domestic use, and that
the small pipes now laid are quite sufficient
for that purpose, and that the offer now
made Is for large cast iron pipes simply for
nre protection. it seems to be very favorable
for the town. FIREMAN.

WASHINGTON, June At is stated on un-

settlement of the fishery troubles are good.
All points at issue have now been settled
satisfactorily with one exception, and this,
it is hoped, will also be settled in a short
time. The point upon which Secretary Bay
ard is now resting is that American fishing
vessels shall be permitted to touch at Cana
dian ports, with privileges of shipping crews
and purchasing bait, and indeed any other
purposes, but not to fish within the three
mile limit. Lord Salisbury has conceded the
right to put in for wood, water and supplies.
Probably there will be some compromise on
these points. In the meantime it is under
stood that during the season American fish
ermen have met with comparatively friendly
treatment
